【Why did they suddenly fall out? 】

"The one who holds back" Nara Shikasuke secretly groaned. He and his two companions immediately stared at their toes, as if there was some fatal attraction there, and threw themselves into it wholeheartedly.

The three Root ninjas had fake smiles on their faces, but the murderous intent in their eyes became fierce as they stared at Uchiha You closely.

But in the next moment, the Three Magatama Sharingan glared back even more fiercely, knocking down the three Root Ninjas directly, and they collapsed to the ground.

The three Root Ninjas who fell one after another startled the Third Hokage and the "three dragging trio".

None of them could have imagined that Uchiha Yu's Sharingan would be so powerful that even the extremely mentally strong Root ninjas could not withstand a single glance from him.

In the information Uchiha You has revealed to the outside world, he has always been known for his command ability. He is also very strong in fire escape and physical skills, and he rarely uses the Sharingan.

In fact, he had used it before, but whenever he used the Sharingan, he left no one alive, so naturally the information could not be transmitted.

The Third Hokage put away his pipe and asked coldly: "Uchiha Yuu, you actually attacked the Konoha ninja in front of me, what do you mean?"

Uchiha You poured himself a cup of tea and said calmly: "It's nothing, I just feel disgusted by you and I don't want to endure it anymore."

Sarutobi Hiruzen was stunned. He hadn't been targeted so directly in 20 years. He had no idea what to say in this situation.

Uchiha You was calm and composed. After slowly drinking a cup of tea, he said faintly: "Third Hokage, you have gone too far."

"I was very considerate from the beginning. You asked me to go to the Land of Hot Springs, so I went."

"After I have made a mess of the situation in the Land of Hot Springs, you told me to go back to the village and not to move around, and I will go back to the village."

"Although I don't know why, you suddenly asked me to leave the village on a mission, and I accepted it."

"You knocked on my door this evening, and I welcomed you and even gave you tea."

"It has come to this, and you actually expect to give me a Root team. What do you want to do? Do you want me to die?"

"Third Hokage, why do you think that you just need to put on a smiling face and I will have to smile and accept your arrangement of letting me die?"

"Who gave you such strong confidence?"

"Uchiha Fugaku?"

"But I'm not Uchiha Fugaku!"

Uchiha You became angrier and angrier as he spoke, so he simply stretched out his hand, pointed at the Third Hokage's nose and cursed: "Look at yourself, what have you become now!"

"Sarutobi Hiruzen! You are now worthless to the Leaf Village and even a nuisance. You are worse than a guard dog!"

Uchiha You didn't even give the Third Hokage any face at all and cursed him to his heart's content.

The time is ripe and our own strength is in place.

There is no need for Uchiha You to put himself in a difficult position and pamper Sarutobi Hiruzen anymore.

So what about the Third Hokage?

If you dare to make him unhappy, just confront him!

If the monsters of the Ghost Kingdom were not what he coveted, he would have rejected this mission.

…

The Third Hokage pushed Konoha Village to support the Rain Country and put all his efforts into assembling a large ninja army, which was to set off within a day or two.

This is the time.

In this army, not only did the Third Hokage give his all, he even mobilized a large number of Sarutobi clan ninjas for the first time, and there were also a large number of Uchiha clan ninjas.

However, Uchiha You led his three elders to strongly oppose it, won over Uchiha Shifang and Uchiha Tsunekazu, tore their faces against the clan leader Fugaku, and was determined not to send out their own ninjas.

The infighting within the Uchiha clan was extremely fierce, and the scene was extremely exaggerated.

Uchiha You's attitude was firm. Not to mention Uchiha Fugaku, even the Third Hokage's attempt to mediate was met with failure.

Because of this contact, Sarutobi Hiruzen noticed that a huge monster had appeared within the Uchiha family and almost took control of the entire Uchiha family.

What shocked the Third Hokage even more was that the actual leader of this force, Uchiha Yu, was actually a 19-year-old young man.

He is also the founder of the Tiger Force, the founder and manager of the Uchiha Clan's Ninjutsu and Tactics Study Club, and the natural leader of the younger generation of the Uchiha Clan.

Uchiha You is so outstanding, but he has never attracted attention. He was an ordinary genius when he was a child, and an excellent Genin after graduation. He was promoted to Jonin at the age of 18 because of his command ability and became a little famous.

It’s hidden so deeply!

Whenever he recalled this information, the Third Hokage couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

But what made the Third Hokage determined to deal with Uchiha Yu was his ability to teach Uchiha children.

In just two years, he personally developed 237 pairs of Sharingan.

So scary.

We can’t let Uchiha You live!

But as a politician, Sarutobi Hiruzen knew very well that he could not assassinate the leader of a force brutally, and he had to destroy Uchiha Yu's forces before killing him.

Especially now that his reputation has been damaged, even if the assassination is successful, he cannot afford the backlash that will follow.

So the Third Hokage carefully planned an expedition plan, gaining enough reputation by intimidating Hanzo, and then turning back to form an alliance with Uchiha Fugaku and jointly eliminate Uchiha Yu's forces.

Both Mitokado En and Utane Koharu agreed with this plan.

Uchiha Fugaku and Uchiha Setsuna also agreed awkwardly.

Because Uchiha You insisted on opposing Uchiha Fugaku, his orders became empty words, and Fugaku realized that he was being sidelined.

Uchiha Setsuna also discovered that the boy who was at odds with him had become the most powerful person in the family.

Within the Uchiha clan, Uchiha You controls two-thirds of the ninjas, not counting the Tiger Force.

Even if Fugaku and Setsuna joined forces, they would not be able to put up an effective resistance, so they urgently needed external support.

The Third Hokage and Fugaku needed each other, and soon joined forces to plan an expedition to deal with Uchiha Yuu.

The Third Hokage promised to compensate the Uchiha Clan for their losses after the plan was completed.

For their own power and the benefits promised by the Third Hokage, Fugaku and Setsuna took out their own assets and put all their confidants on the gambling table.

…

Although he was determined to eliminate Uchiha You and formulated and implemented a plan, the Third Hokage could not have imagined that Uchiha You would dare to point at his nose and scold him.

Sarutobi Hiruzen felt his whole body trembling, anger rising in his heart, and evil was at his fingertips. If there were not three cowering Ino-Shika-Cho behind him, he really wanted to throw everything aside and swing the diamond stick to smash the bastard in front of him to death.

After the death of the Second Hokage, no one in the entire ninja world dared to scold him.

Uchiha You not only cursed, but also used all kinds of dirty words to scold Sarutobi Hiruzen. He was really arrogant!

But because Uchiha You was too arrogant, he cleared all the buffer space, and the push-pull tactics familiar to the Third Hokage were no longer usable.

Either he vented his anger now and directly reprimanded Uchiha You for being disrespectful, then ordered the Konoha ninja to capture him, put him in prison and teach him a lesson.

Either he could directly issue an order with the authority of the Hokage, requiring Uchiha You to take his men and then speed up the plan.

The Third Hokage chose the second method.

He ordered Uchiha You with a cold face: "As the Hokage, I order you to take these two teams to carry out the mission in the Land of Demons."

"Yes, Hokage-sama."

Uchiha You accepted the order in a joking tone, then drank the last sip of tea and said, "Actually, it should have been like this from the beginning."

"You obviously came here to make me uncomfortable, why do you think that just saying nice things will do the trick?"

"Look, you should give orders in a strong way. I don't want to be beaten to death as a traitor on the spot, so I have to obey your orders."

"Third Hokage, you have long been a rotten person. How can you still want to be the moral model of Konoha Village and the best Hokage?"

Uchiha Yuu stood up and snapped his fingers to wake up the Root ninja.

He walked straight to the door and said to everyone, "Let's go. The Third Hokage has given the order. We can't dawdle here."

Ino-Shika-Chou and the three Root ninjas looked at the Third Hokage, only to see that his face was ashen and he was breathing heavily, but he still waved his hand, signaling them to set off.

So the six ninjas did not hesitate any longer and quickly followed Uchiha You and soon disappeared around the corner of the street.

Only the angry Third Hokage was left, sitting in Uchiha Yu's house sulking.

At this moment, Uchiha You's voice came from afar: "Third Hokage, when you have sat enough and leave, remember to help me close the door."

"Although the security in Konoha Village is very good, leaving the gate open is too tempting. For my neighbors, this is too cruel a test."

Sarutobi Hiruzen became even angrier. He felt his heart pounding, making his ears buzz and his head feel swollen and uncomfortable.

After resting for a long time, he finally caught his breath.

At this time, it had been too long since he left the Hokage's office. Mito Kado En, worried about his safety, rushed over with 12 teams of Root ninjas.

More than 48 Anbu ninjas gathered and approached the Uchiha clan's territory, which naturally could not escape the eyes of the Uchiha clan ninjas.

Given the recent tensions between the two sides, the Uchiha ninja naturally reacted with caution.

Dozens of Uchiha ninjas also appeared in the shadows and intercepted the Root ninjas near Uchiha Yu's house. The two sides formed a standoff and the atmosphere became increasingly tense.

Soon, the Uchiha clan leader Fugaku appeared, and the tense atmosphere reached its peak.

Mitomon En was too careless in his actions.

It would obviously be enough to bring 5 or 6 people, and it wouldn't arouse the Uchiha's vigilance, so why do we have to bring two squadrons?

At this point, the Third Hokage had no choice but to come out of Uchiha Yu's house, close the door, and go straight to the center of the confrontation between the two sides to prevent the situation from developing further.

He said to Uchiha Fugaku: "I'm sorry, this time I came to look for Uchiha You without informing you, and ended up causing such a scene. It was really wrong."

Uchiha Fugaku took a deep breath and asked, "Hokage-sama, you are the leader of Konoha Village. It is our honor to have you come to the Uchiha Clan."

"But the Root has assembled two squadrons of ninjas and rushed over aggressively without the Hokage's orders. How can we not be afraid?"

The Third Hokage apologized again: "I'm sorry, this was a mistake on my part. It will never happen again next time."

Uchiha Fugaku was relieved to hear the Third Hokage apologize, and he softened his tone and said, "Okay, Hokage, I believe you."

Then he shouted to his clansmen, "It's alright, this is just a misunderstanding, Hokage-sama and I will resolve the problem."

"Let's all go home!"

Following Fugaku's shout, all the Uchiha ninjas retreated.

Sarutobi Hiruzen found a familiar feeling at once. Uchiha Fugaku was still so easy to fool, and the Uchiha ninjas were still so easily persuaded by soft words. They were all stupid and easy to deal with.

But how did Uchiha Yu suddenly appear?

He is cunning, able to endure loneliness, his eyes are only on interests, he doesn't care about face at all, it seems that he is hard-hearted, but in fact he is not.

From no point of view, he is not a member of the Uchiha family. He doesn't even look like a ninja. He looks more like one of the nobles in the daimyo's mansion.

That's not right. This bastard also curses and acts like a shrew and makes a scene.

After giving up a lot of interests and quickly dealing with Fugaku, the Third Hokage left the Uchiha clan's territory with a smile.

But on the way back, Sarutobi Hiruzen was full of sorrow, and he began to miss Danzo again.

When Danzo was here, his seemingly reckless and destructive actions always left the Uchiha people at a loss as to what to do.

The third generation and Danzo cooperated with each other, and with a simple move of advance two steps and retreat, he was able to make the Uchiha give up their interests and be grateful to him.

The current Mitomon En is loyal enough, but he always makes mistakes, forcing the Third Hokage to give up his interests to the Uchiha in order to maintain the balance of the situation.

If the Third Hokage had not taken the risk of forcing all the Uchiha to withdraw from the management of Konoha Village when Orochimaru left, there would be no room for them to give up their interests now.

Mitomon En saw the Third Hokage's frustration and felt deeply embarrassed. He apologized, "Hiruzen, it's my fault again this time. I'm sorry for putting you in a difficult position."

"Forget it. No matter what, we have achieved our goal and exiled Uchiha You far away."

"Under the surveillance of the Root Ninja and the Ino-Shika-Chou, it will take him at least a month to complete the Demon Country mission. This is enough time for us to eliminate his influence in the Uchiha Clan after we resolve the matter of the Rain Country."

The Third Hokage lit up his pipe and comforted Mito Kado En, "It's not all bad now. At least my relationship with Uchiha Fugaku is getting better and better. Just consider it a necessary investment."

"After we eliminate Uchiha Yuu's forces and kill him, Uchiha Fugaku will have no capital to bargain with me."

"No matter how much he eats now, he will have to spit out double the amount later!"

…

"Action plan?"

Uchiha Yuu looked at Nara Shikasuke and said, "What kind of action plan is needed for a simple mission?"

Nara Shikasuke explained: "Uchiha Jonin, the target of this mission is the monster Wuliang! You are the person in charge of this mission, how can you not have a plan?"

"I am the person in charge of this mission?" Uchiha You asked curiously, "Why didn't anyone tell me?"

Nara Shikasuke couldn't help but complain in his heart: Of course the Third Hokage should have told him this, but you scolded him like a dog, how could he still remember such details.

Nara Shikasuke had no choice but to take out the mission book of his own team, and asked for the mission book of the Root Ninja Team, and gave them to Uchiha Yu together.

Uchiha You took a closer look and found that both mission books had the words "obey Uchiha You's orders", proving that he was indeed the person in charge.

He sneered disdainfully, pointed at the ninja of the Root team, and said to Nara Shikasuke: "Can a guy with murderous eyes like this really obey my orders?"

Nara Shikasuke looked at the Root ninja with a strange smile on his face and murderous eyes, and felt that he was not convincing.

He could only spread his hands and said, "I don't know either."

Uchiha You was amused by him and said, "Well, I am indeed the person in charge of the task, so I will make a plan."

"The target of the mission is the monsters. We must rush to the Land of Demons as quickly as possible, destroy the monsters, complete the mission, and then go home."

"Mission duration: 7 days."

Nara Shikasuke was stunned and directly expressed his objection: "This is impossible. If we want to reach the Land of Demons, we must pass through the Land of Rain, the Land of Birds, and the Land of Bears."

"Uchiha Jonin, these countries are all battlefields, full of hostile ninjas. There is no way we can travel at full speed."

"According to the route I planned, as long as I'm lucky enough, I can reach the Land of Ghosts within 7 days. This is already the limit."

Uchiha You glanced at the map he drew and asked disdainfully: "Why don't you go through the Rain Country and then into the Wind Country, and then go straight to the Ghost Country along the Wind Country?"

"The Land of Wind? That's the land of the Sand Village. How can we..."

Halfway through his words, Nara Shikasuke suddenly realized that it was actually possible to pass through the Kingdom of Wind.

The Wind Country is too big, and there are too few Sand Village ninjas. Their main forces are concentrated in the Rain Country and the River Country. There are definitely not many ninjas in their own territory.

As long as they move fast enough, they will be able to pass through the Wind Country and reach the Demon Country directly before the Sand Ninjas can react.

But he still questioned it, "Uchiha Jonin, your plan is feasible, but this route is longer, and it will take 5 days even if we go at full speed."

Uchiha You raised his eyebrows and said, "That's because you're too slow. Anyway, I've already made a plan. You can't blame me if you can't do it."

Nara Shikasuke understood what Uchiha Yuu meant. He actually wanted to get rid of the six ninjas and complete the mission first...

How is it possible? That is a mission to seal monsters and goblins, a well-known joint mission in the ninja world. How can it be completed by one person?

That’s right!

Uchiha You even scolded the Third Hokage without any mercy, so would he still care about the mission?

But he is a ninja. If a ninja doesn't even carry out his mission, wouldn't he be seeking death like Hatake Sakumo?

Nara Shikasuke's mind was in a mess.

The Third Hokage gave him a secret mission, asking two teams to work together to keep an eye on Uchiha Yuu and not let him return to Konoha Village until the mission was completed.

How to do this?
